Step 7. Smile! You're almost there!
Step 8. Register your Canary
Your configured Canary now needs to register itself with your console. Open another browser tab to your console and login. This will allow the Canary to register automatically.
If automatic registration fails, click here for information about offline registration.
Step 9. Deploy into production
With your Canary setup, move it to its production environment and power it up. When the status LED goes Green, the Canary is live.
